'The patron saint of poetry' Carol Ann Duffy 'McGough is a true
original and more than one generation would be much the poorer
without him' The Times _______________ For fifty years, Roger
McGough has delighted readers with poetry that is at once playful
and poignant, intimate and universal. In his latest collection, he
explores the whole gamut of the human experience, from forgotten
friendships and family life, to the trauma of war and contemporary
politics, wittily showing us who we are in all our shades of light
and dark. _______________ 'McGough has done for poetry what
champagne does for weddings' Time out 'Memorable and enduring and
fresh. Age has not withered [his lines] nor diminished their
potency. Of how much modern poetry can you say that?' Sunday Herald
'McGough's trademarks: the craft worn as lightly as the crown, the
jokes that are something more, the underlying heartache, the acute
sense of the way time slips away' Poetry Review
